I'm confused about my mental health coaching assessment. The template is different to the health coach assessment?
For your Mental Health logbook (for cohorts 13 and PRIOR) you record only a summary of your total coaching hours. Download the template here.
For your Mental Health Coach (MHC) assessment, the key component we are assessing is your three case studies. For each client, you’ll need to:
-
Complete SOAP notes (or another detailed notes format) for each session (minimum of 3 sessions per client), and
-
Submit a case study document reflecting on the client’s overall journey after completing the sessions.
So, for each client, you’ll submit:
-
3 x SOAP notes + 1 case study document
That means across all 3 clients, you will complete:
-
9 x SOAP notes + 3 case study documents
If each session is 1 hour, that equals 9 hours of coaching.
In addition to the case study clients, you are required to complete another 16 hours of coaching. For these additional hours:
-
You are not required to submit reflections or session notes (though you're welcome to keep notes for your own development—these won’t be marked).
All coaching hours, including the case study sessions and additional hours, should be recorded in your coaching logbook summary table.
Hope that all makes sense! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.
Cheers,
